Well, maybe the port of libg++ wasn't as straight forward as I remembered
it to be...  I've had quite a few requests from NeXT users for the changes
I made, so I'm posting this to comp.sys.next.

Here are the changes I made to g++-include/String.h, so that it would compile.
I hope these are correct. This is a diff; the originals are given first and the
modifications are given second...

That's it: just three lines.  I guess there were problems with the constructor
syntax.  I just changed it to explicitly initialize the 'rep' member, rather
than use C++'s spiffy implicit initialization syntax.

Hope this helps!
